This week I’m sharing some of my favourite reads of 2023 Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and Bookish and is hosted by The Artsy Reader Girl. 

So this isn’t a fun post to make, I hate making these hard decisions. Especially in regards to picking my favourite reads of the year. I had a fantastic reading year in 2023 and read over 200 books, so I have so many to choose from.

I mean there were some ugly reads, there were some standouts and there were some that I may never think of again. So I had to really think a lot for this post. And I may come back in 6 months and think differently. 

But enough of this chit-chat, here are some of the best books I read in 2023. Nearly all of these are romances, honestly, all of these are romances. Because that is all I read in 2023, and I loved it. But there is a range of romances here. I do want to make a quick note that the books on this list are my favourites. This is what I thought of them and they may not be for you. But I liked them a lot. 

So without further ado, here are some of my favourite books for 2023.  And as always these are in no real order. If I also loved a whole series and read it in 2023, I included it as one. Let’s go!

The Bonds That Tie Series by J. Bree. | Final Offer (Dreamland Billionaires, #3) by Lauren Asher. | Heartless (Chestnut Springs, #2) by Elsie Silver | The Royals of Forsyth University #4-#6 by Angel Lawson and Samantha Rue.

The Empyrean Series #1-#2 by Rebecca Yarros. | Wildfire (Maple Hills, #2) by Hannah Grace. | Fate of a Royal (Lords of Rathe, #1) by Meagan Brandy and Amo Jones. | The Crown of Oaths and Curses (The Mortal Fates, #1) by J. Bree.

Out on a Limb by Hannah Bonam-Young. | Brayshaw High Series by Meagan Brandy. | Caution to the Wind (The Fallen Men, #7) by Giana Darling | Caught Up (Windy City, #3) by Liz Tomforde.

There are so many more books and series that I could have added to this list, but I already went over the 10. But those are some of my favourite reads of 2023. Have you read any of these books? What did you think? What books made it to your list this year? Let’s chat!
